A Lesson About Cotton.
Here are some facts about cotton that
"ivory one interested in the production
of cotton would do well to study.
The 9.900,000 bale cropof 1894-95 sold
for $326,000,000.
The 7,000,000 bales produced in 1895
JML sold for $292,000,000.
The crop of 1890-97 amounted to 8,
'750,000 bales, sold for $327,000,000. sold
Or the big crop of 1894-95 for
$64,000,000 lesB than the succeeding
year’s crop, although it was nearly 3,
000,000 bales larger.
The crop of 1896 -97 sold for $199,000, -
000 more and was over 1,000,000 bales
«ess. Thus it will appear that the
larger the crop the less it sells for, and
a 7,000,000 hale crop is really worth
hale more to producers thau a 10,000,000

Spring Medicine
A Good Blood Purifier a Neces¬
sity Now
Hood’s Sarsaparilla Unequalled
for Making Rich, Red Blood
The necessity for taking a good Spring
Medicine to purify the blood and build up
the system is based upon natural and un
avoidable causes. In cold weather tliero
has been less perspiration and impurities
have not passed out of tho system as they
should. Food has consisted largely of
rich, fatty substances, and there has been
less opportunity for outdoor exorcise.
The result is, the blood is loaded with im
purities and these must bo promptly ex
polled or health will be endangered.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the best Spring
Medicine because it is the best blood
purifier and tonic. It thoroughly purifies
the blood and gives vigor and vitality.

GOOD ROADS NOTES.
Compare Conditions Carefully.
Misrepresentation makes mischief.
Care should be exercised in making
comparisons. Statements have been
made that some States are paying
$2000 a mile for good roads, while
other States pay $10,000 for abbut the
same thing. As ft matter of fact, the
roads are very unlike, and differently
built. First-class, permanent stone
Toads, well drained and properly
graded, are likely to cost very much
nearer the latter figure than the for¬
mer.—L. A. W. Bulletin.
f Different Forma of Pavemehtt
There is no one variety of pavement
suited to all degrees and forms of traf¬
fic, says the Municipal World.
‘ ‘Granite block pavement ia the most
durable which can be constructed, re¬
quires but little repair and is well
adapted to steep grades, but is rough,
noisy and trying on the hoofs of
horses. Asphalt is a very smooth and
agreeable pavement on which to drive,
is handsome, sanitary and may be
kept very clean, but ia less durable
than granite, and cannot be used on
steep grades. Vitrified brick is fairly
well adapted to steep grades, ranking
next to granite in the foothold afford¬
ed horses, is smooth and less noisy
than granite, is very agreeable for
driving or wheeling, may be kept very
clean, but is less durable than either
granite or asphalt. Crushed stone
(macadam) is the most agreeable for
driving, is not noisy, is superior to all
in safety is adapted to steep grades,
but under excessive traffic is very ex¬
pensive to maintain..”
A Stimulus to Fife in Rural Communities*
We have 1,300,0Q0 miles of country
roads in the United States. Most of
them are so had that hauling is costly,
laborious and often cruel work, while
driving for recreation is out of the
question. The pleasures of country
life would be doubled were there turn¬
pikes in every neighborhood. Notice
those counties in Kentucky, like Shel¬
by, where the roads are kept in a high
state of improvement, and others, like
Green, where there are virtually no
highways. Witness the improvement
in the rural life of Hardin and Warren
counties, whicii have recently built ex¬
tensive and valuable systems of turn¬
pikes. There is no greater agency to
stimulate farming and the whole life
of rural communities than the build¬
ing of roads; no other so easy to be re¬
sorted to. It is not necessary to invite
foreign capital; it can be done at home.
It will relieve the hard conditions of
rural life so fully that the drift of the
population to towns and cities would
be at once arrested.
When pleasure and profit are so
joined together as in this scheme of
improvement why should there be hes¬
itation?—Louisville Courier-Journal.
Good Roads Easy to Secure.
A Pennsylvania paper says that a
competent engineer and contractor
offers to give bonds to gridiron Lan¬
caster County with first-class macadam
roads within five years, so that there
won’t be a farmer who will live over a
mile-and-a-lialf from one of these roads
on any side of him, and three-fourths
will live immediately on them, pro¬
vided a four mill tax per annum on
the county’s valuation (outside of Lan¬
caster and Columbia) be paid him for
ten years. This looks like an easy
way to get good roads. The county is
about twenty-eight by thirty miles, so
it would require nearly 50U miles of
road to cross it in both ways, every
three miles, But the contractor
allows tor building 60!) miles, as fol¬
lows:

To Work Virginia’s Convicts oil tbe Road.
The bill introduced in the Virginia
Legislature, for the employment of
convicts oil the roads of the State,
provides that all able-bodied male
prisoners, sentenced to jail or peni¬
tentiary for more than ninety days,
shall be subject to work on the roads.
Those sentenced to county jails shall
work upon the roads of such counties,
unless there is no immediate need of
them, in which case they may be hired
to other counties, but only for road
work.
The convicts not required for ser¬
vices in the penitentiary are to be dis¬
tributed among the counties, on ap¬
plication, and none are to be hired
out for any purpose but road worn.
Not less than five, nor more than
twenty-five, are to he assigned to any
one county, every assignment to he
made for a year, unless shorter time
is requested, and even then for not
less than ninety days. If the number
of convicts is not sufficient to fill the
applications, they are to be supplied
ratably.
Convicts, in respect to their work,
are to be under the control of the
county authorities in which they
work; but,vas prisoners, they are to
“remain in the custody of the State
authorities as if they remained in the
penitentiary,” and transportation ex
penses, guarding, feeding, clothing
and medical attendance are to be paid
by the State, the counties to provide
euitablft shelter.
Each county is to adopt and put in
operation a scheme or plan for working
its roads by such prisoners in its jail
as are available, together Seciirect with those
which may be from the
State, and ‘ ‘every county shali an¬
nually levy d road tax bf hot less thati
fifteen cents, nor more hundred thah thirty
cents, bn every 'ode dollars
of the value of the property, real and
personal, assessed for taxes in the
county, the proceeds to be applied to
road improvements in said county.”
Cost _ of Bad Hoad Transportation.
Some very interesting observations
as to the cost ot bad roads to farmers
were made in an address delivered to
the students oi Union College, N Y.,
by Mr. Francis V, Greene, President
of he Barber Asphalt Company; At
a thorough discussion of the expense
as well as the inconvenience bt bac
highways is necessary to bring about
a reform some of his remarks are here
reproduced:
“In the older and more settled por
tions of the country the railroads are
so numerous and the rates are so low
that they yield but a small return on
the capital invested, and the construc¬
tion of new railroads lias ceased to bo
an attractive field for investnleiit:
The rates of freight have been steadily
reduced, year by year, until they are
now barely one-fourth of what they
were thirty years ago. Still the traps
portation problem can not be consid
ered as satisfactorily solved if it costs
much to carry a ton of wheat or pota¬
toes to the railway station as it does
to carry it 400 miles over the railroad,
“The bad condition of the roads be
gun to attract widespread attention
something over ten years ago. Certain
elementary principles were evident
a glance, to wit: the price of farm
products is fixed at the great cities oi
centers of consumption and distribu*
tion, and is wholly beyond the farmer’s
control, and the cost of transporta
tion is a principal factor in determin
ing his profits or the possibility
auy profit. On the railroads this has
been reduced until it varies according
to bulk, from one cent to six mills
ton per mile. But the average roads
are so bad that a two-horse team and
wagon, the value of which is $3 pel
day, cannot haul a ton of produce
more than ten miles and return in a
day. The cost of road transpartation
is, therefore, thirty cents per ton per
mile, or about forty times as great as
the rate on the railroad. The average
distance from the farm to the nearest
railroad station is at least ten miles,
so that it costs as much to get the
goods to or from the railroad station
as to carry them 4-00 miles on the cars.
It only needs to state these element¬
ary facts to show what an enormous
drain bad roads make on our re
sources.
‘ ‘It is evident that au improvement
in these conditions is imperative, and
the remedy is equally evident, for it
has been proved, not only by
chanical experiment but by actual test,
that the same force which draws one
ton 011 a muddy earth road will draw
four tons on a hard macadam read?
O 11 the improved roads in New
loads of four to five tons are habitr/
ally drawn by a two-horse team. This
effects a saving of fully three-fourths
of the cost of hauling to the station,
and reduces the cost of road trans¬
portation from thirty cents to seven
and one-half cents per ton per mile.
What this saving amounts to may be
imagined when it is known that the
New York Central railroad alone car
ries nearly 20,000,000 tons of way
freight in a year. If this is hauled
only two miles by road to or from the
station, and a saving of twenty-two
and one-half cents per ton per mile
could be effected, it would mean a
total saving of nearly $9,000,000.
These figures may seem exaggerated,
but they will no longer appear so when
we realize the saving actually ac¬
complished by the reduction ill rail¬
road rates in the last twenty-five years.
For instance, in 1869 the average
freight rate on the New York Central
Railroad was 2.4 cents per ton per
mile; in 1893 it was seven mills. This
saving, on the business of 1893 is
ward of $64,000,000. This is the
suit, which has been accomplished. by
the application to the railroad prob
lem of the highest available talent.'
Liming ttiese same twenty-nve hvonfv fivp jeai.. -voire!
little or no attention has been given tOj
the railroad problem. The roads are
as bad now as they were in 1869, ana
the cost of transportation over then
as great now as it was then, In tli
next twenty-five years the results ae
complished on the common roads arc
likely to be as remarkable as thos:
achieved on the railroads in the
twenty-five years.”
